Along with Musik, the Contact Trio’s New Marks is another standout for ECM’s sister label, JAPO. Sharing with that later release frontmen Evert Brettschneider (acoustic and electric guitars) and Aloys Kott (fretless bass) but differing in the presence of Michael Jüllich (percussion, marimba, and vibes), this incarnation of the band charts vaster, even more palpable territory with a crystalline signature sound, for which we may also thank the late, great producer Thomas Stöwsand.

Musik was the second effort by the Contact Trio for ECM’s sister JAPO label.

Here Peter Eisold takes the place of drummer Michael Jüllich, and the result is a truly aerobic experience.

The duo of Tom Howie and Jimmy Vallance now invite fans to relive the experience with a new live album, Falling Into Focus – Live 2020, featuring the entire set from the concert and a never before heard band version of “Desire” that is exclusive to this live album.
